Depends on what model obviously.

One linksys that I have working on v1.24.2 is;

General -> Type: ffmpeg

Source ->

Path: http://10.0.0.100/img/video.asf
Colours: 24 bit
Width: 640
Height: 480

But don't get your hopes up too high. Linksys make crap cameras. Quality and reliability is poor.

thanks for your answer but it's not a linksys camera it's a logitech camera
this is this one :
http://www.logitech.com/fr-fr/webcam-co ... tion=specs
it's used with a CPL adapter but it's transparent for ubuntu
I can ping it so the ip adress and the subnet mask is ok but i can't have a picture so I think the problem is about the path.
I've already read this post but the path is not clear for me..

I have read the wiki (http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... rk_Cameras) about supported hardware but there is nothing about logitech network camera

Hello,

I also have a Logitech Outdoor Camera and I can not find the path to capture the video stream with zoneminder.
I set zoneminder as indicated bb99 but it doesn't work.
http://172.29.37.51/video.cgi?a=.mjpg no returns "HTTP/1.0 404 - File Not Found"

Thank you for your help!
